Editor's Notes
- I like food, and I like sharing my love for food.
- However most social media..
- Are probably not the right place to do this.
- However I am interested to keep track of what I´m eating. Whether I´m eating healthy…
- Too much or too little..
- I´m also interested to know what my friends are eating
- I might discover new products or recipes!
- This is how we came about the idea of Foodzy: A new social network where you keep track of what you eat and where you are rewarded for healthy eating habits.
- Keeping track is easy, I just type a product name, find it in the database, select the right amount and add it to my dashboard.
- Foodzy works with local databases: This way you’ll only search for food products that are available in your home country.
- Like mentioned earlier: Foodzy rewards good eating habits. Like the Mr Brightsight badge for eating plenty of carrots.
- But the best possible diet is to eat well, varied and most of all: Enjoy food. That’s why we’re also giving badges for BBQing 5 times in the summer.

- Now one of the coolest features of Foodzy is that over time your personal statistics on Foodzy will give you lots of insights about your health and eating behaviours.
- In the future, we could expand these possibilities by for example connecting Foodzy to XBox Kinect: Burnt a lot of calories? You can eat a little more tonight!
- Foodzy launched as a webservice, but we are currently working on a mobile site and mobile apps to make adding food even easier.
- Luckily, Foodzy.com is allready fully compatible with the iPad (and iPhone) so that you can allready use the webservice on these devices.
- Foodzy’s business model is basic: Lite users get a free account, for €10 / $15 per year you upgrade to ‘Pro’ and get the extended dashboard, diet plans, more badges and food history.
- In the future we also see great possibilities for food producers to get involved in Foodzy: Branded product icons, badges, etc.
- Foodzy is currently live in private beta for invited users only. We hope to publicly launch in May 2011.
